RotB - Miniature Reeds

For set extension and super wide shots we created matte paintings from tiny miniature sets. Most of these miniature scenes were built by Gottfried Mentor, who had already worked on the sets for 'The Gruffalo.' Here you can see the miniature version of the 'Reeds' set.

Gottfried and I studied together at the Filmakademie Baden Wuerttemberg. In addition to being an incredible set builder he's also a great filmmaker. Check out his work!
